Syllables: 

Why do we teach about syllables? 

Dividing words into parts helps the with fluency and the process of decoding. Knowing the rules for syllable division can students read words more accurately and fluently. Understanding syllables can also help students learn to spell words correctly.

When readers know the syllable division rules, it…

A) helps them successfully decode multisyllabic words. 

B) provides them with clues about the vowel sounds in multisyllabic words! Knowing how to divide words into syllables gives your kids POWER to attack longer words! 

Assignments 

Each week we will learn a new syllable pattern, while reviewing specific spelling patterns which make up syllable parts. Students should have basic knowledge of letter sounds, such as short and long vowels, vowel teams, r-controlled vowels.  However, as we move through the class, certain sounds and patterns will be reviewed.
